Elive

I tried to install LXDE and to start it tru entrance.
Unfortunately it doesn’t work, every time i try to start LXDE entrance reboots..
thus is impossible to use LXDE.

when using GUI to import a new theme, a file selection window is displayed. The problem is that from the default directory, the “Go up a Directory” button is grayed out (unselectable).

This can be ugly-fixed by clicking “Add to Favorites” button, after which the “Go up a Directory” button is activated.

System - elive 1.9.21-6

The Swiss French keymap dont work.
it does not work on live and installed mode. I can change.

when install the elive gem after confirm whit eliveuser and elive like password y see this in the panel: `
eliveuser@Elive[`]$_
after that nothing
what y due wrong ???

Evince can’t open web links, see it at for example this pdf http://www.vimeo.com/groups/cinelerra/file:1612

The video thumbnails in thunar fails when the video is too short (time)

They may also be wrong...

See the videos on your Nokia phone (thanatermesis talks himself) to have an example

There’s a kind of mess between these 2 interfaces (wifi and wired), i removed all the netconnector configurations and then started the daemon and configured only for my wired connection, that is a static ip with autoconnect=yes, after to reboot i have:

A different ip (a dhcp one) for my wired interface, if I run netconnector (gui), in the Wired part i have my static ip set/configured, and in the Status values says that i have a different one (this dhcp obtained one), if i run ifconfig i have the static ip set to the WIFI interface instead of the wired one. Again in the GUI, in the Wifi part, i have the “autoconnect” box set in ON (of course i have not set it, maybe the problem is from here?), and the status for the wifi says that I have the static ip.

A more descriptive image can be found at http://thana.no-ip.org/shots/deleteme-netconnector-strange.jpg

My configurations are:

root@Babylon:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces-eth0 
iface network inet dhcp
root@Babylon:~# cat /etc/net-connector/profiles.conf 
[ath0]
[eth0]
[[casa]]
wireless = No
wireless-mode = None
essid = None
encryption_key = None
wpa-driver = None
encryption = None
dhcp = No
gateway = 192.168.2.1
address = 192.168.2.166
netmask = 255.255.255.0
auto_connect = yes

I just found that Eltrans discarded and replaced my nearly finished “eltrans”(over 90%) Translations. Now it’s at about 30%! And I got no idea where all the work has gone to! Additionally both, the Fuzzy and “ready” Translations are of a really bad quality.

Update marillat (multimedia) dependency packages, specially ogmrip to the version 0.12.3 (elm0 report)

Move all the multimedia-repository packages to a new repository branch

For some old computers (like my new old dell latitude c400), the default synaptics configuration not works

It is needed to remove the default configuration of synaptics, use gsynaptics from user instead

ADSL and PPPOE Configuration does not work. it crashed all the time.

Please FIX this Peoblem.

Whenever i want to install Elive, i have to install a certain Module in order to be able to install Elive on my Hard disk. Is there any Solution for this Problem????

And if i do not have any Internet connection because of the Bug in ADSL and PPPOE Configuration, then there is no any Chance to install Elive on my HDD.

Hi!
My Notebook’s wifi does not work with Elive. It’s not even recognizing it’s wifi-device.
As far as I know it’s using an SIS163u wifi-device.

Hi!
VLC always shuts off when trying to open a videofile. It doesnt even send a message. It just says “VLC was closed without any message”

I have three operating systems on my machine. The 1st one is Windows Vista, the 2nd one is Windows XP and the 3rd one is eLive. eLive has been installed as the last one and brought GRUB with it. It has created four GRUB entries (1: eLive GEM+, 2: Windows Vista, Windows XP, Memory RAM Diagnostic). Every entry works fine, only when I select Vista then XP comes up and when I select XP then Vista comes up. So either the descriptions or the boot devices are swapped. I am not clear about the devices. Vista has one disk, eLive and XP share the other disk. This is my menu.lst:

title Elive Gem+ 
root (hd0,4)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.26.8-elive-686 root=UUID=5f5c337c-c679-413e-b9e7-1cbcdc0107ae vga=791 splash=silent resume=UUID=a756b053-617a-439b-8fb9-50d97962aa84
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.26.8-elive-686

# This is a divider, added to separate the menu items below from the Debian
# ones.

Hi there, I have installed eLive Gem+ compiz on a Lenovo Thinkpad T60 with an ATI Radeon Mobility graphics adapter. Both the included mplayer and vlc from the repositories flicker when watching movies. This seems independent from the movie format and the payer.

Hi there,

I have installed yakuake (a Quake-like shell) and when I reboot the system from this console then the graphical environment will not come up anymore afterwards. This is because the root filesystem (jfs) could not be mounted read-write anymore. Mount says the filesystem is rw but touch says the filesystem is read-only. fsck / followed by a reboot fixes the problem.

Hi there,

when I plug in my external DVD writer then the following appears in my syslog (/var/log/messages);

When I insert an Audio CD there is no more message concerning that in the log. Alsothe CD doesn’t appear somewhere like e.g. in Thunar or the filesystem under /mnt or /media. Shouldn’t it?

Repeated lines to Standard out for close error: [Errorno 10] No child processes. It seems similar in nature to this bug at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-bugs-list/2007-July/039036.html. Additionally the program that seems to be causing it is netconnectord.

“Normal” Music-CDs don’t get mounted and do not show up anywhere in the Filesystem.
That makes it impossible to play those CDs and also to copy them to the HDD.

Some device icons (like USBs) of the elive icons theme, needs to have a transparent background

For example, when umounting a USB device from thunar, there’s a popup from the corner of the screen with a message and a icon with a non-transparent background
